With a master’s degree in international law, I realized throughout my academic career the importance of evolving in a field that really fascinates me. Overnight, I decided to abandon my parents’ dream of me becoming a lawyer, to pursue my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, striving to keep readers well informed.
Renowned for her aloofness and firmness, Véronique Rabiot has sometimes let down her guard to reveal a softer side. In 2019, at a time when her son was embroiled in a conflict with PSG, she took the initiative to contact Jean-Marc Bosman, a former Belgian player who fell into difficulty.
Jean-Marc Bosman, former Belgian footballer, shared a touching anecdote about Véronique Rabiot. In 2019, Adrien’s mother, who is currently under contract with OM, took steps to contact him to offer him financial support. Known for changing transfer rules for players in Europe, Bosman praised this woman, who was very sensitive to his struggle.

“At that time, I was still drinking. One evening, my phone rang, and it was Véronique Rabiot on the line. I thought: ‘Who is this woman?’ I explained to her that I had been promised a lot of things, and I didn’t believe what she was telling me. She reassured me, asked for my account number, and promised to do something for me. ” confessed Bosman during an interview with La Provence.
In the columns of the Marseille daily, the former player, now 60 years old, tried to clarify this gesture and the rare generosity in the world of football. “Adrien was somewhat in my situation; he did not want to sign the contract that PSG offered him. This person (Véronique) is described as very strict, when in reality she is a very jovial and kind woman. She saw what Adrien was going through at PSG, where he was placed in a loft, and she was very touched by my struggle. She understood what I had given to the players,” he said on Tuesday.
